Chapter 21: Still the Same Sheng Yu Who Loves Her

Half an hour later, Sheng Yu’s car pulled up in front of a majestic building.

A doorman ran over to open the car door for him.

Sheng Yu got out of the car, handed the keys to the doorman, then walked around to the passenger side and opened the door for Qiao Shuyi.

Looking at the hand the man extended, Qiao Shuyi hesitated for a moment before placing her hand in his.

His hand was much larger than hers, perfectly encompassing hers, warm and broad, giving a sense of security.

Sheng Yu led her by the hand into the elevator.

Midway, she tried to pull her hand away, but the man seemed to sense her intention and held her hand tighter.

Qiao Shuyi glared at him in displeasure.

The man chuckled softly, his mood seemingly very pleasant.

Qiao Shuyi was even more displeased.

With a “ding,” the elevator door opened.

Looking at the sea of flowers that came into view, Qiao Shuyi was momentarily stunned: “This…”

Sheng Yu pulled her hand and led her out of the elevator.

Accompanied by soothing and melodious music, the two walked through the blue, dreamlike flower sea, taking a seat in the center of the restaurant.

Qiao Shuyi was speechless with amazement.

Because she remembered now, this was where Sheng Yu had confessed his feelings to her in her previous life.

The same scene, the same flower sea, the same music…

In her daze, a bouquet of blue and white flowers was presented to her, each blossom vibrant and dripping with dew, emitting a faint fragrance, as if freshly picked.

Qiao Shuyi instinctively reached out to take it.

“Did Ji Xingchuan say that you should give flowers to chase girls?”

“Yeah.”

Sheng Yu nodded, his expression unusually tinged with embarrassment.

Qiao Shuyi pursed her lips and smiled.

Even though many things had changed, some people remained the same.

He knew, just like in her previous life, that she loved blue, loved lisianthus and cornflowers, loved the melodious and pure tunes played by the violin.

Sheng Yu was still Sheng Yu.

The same Sheng Yu who loved her as he did in her previous life.

In her previous life, this was a turning point in their relationship, the beginning of her estrangement and avoidance of Sheng Yu.

But in this life, she would no longer run away.

A staff member in a suit and tie approached them, asking softly, “Mr. Sheng, shall we start serving the food now?”

Sheng Yu nodded.

Soon, one exquisite dish after another was brought to the table.

Qiao Shuyi picked up the glass of red wine on the table and took a sip. Just as she was about to say something, the phone in her bag suddenly rang.

She had to put down her wine glass and take out her phone to check.

Seeing that the caller ID was Sheng Tang, she subconsciously looked up at the man across from her and made a “shh” gesture.

“It’s Tangtang.”

Sheng Yu nodded, indicating that he understood.

Qiao Shuyi answered the phone: “Tangtang?”

“Qiao Qiao, where are you? Are you home?”

“No, I’m out eating.”

“Out eating? Who are you with? Where are you?”

“Um…”

Qiao Shuyi glanced at the man across from her, who was calmly composed, feeling a little guilty: “Just a casual friend, we’re just grabbing a bite outside, why?”

“Come out and play tonight! I’ve invited Lin Zhi and the others, I’ll send you the address later, you come by yourself!”

“…Okay.”

Qiao Shuyi had just agreed when Sheng Tang hung up the phone.

“What’s wrong?” Sheng Yu asked.

“Tangtang sent me an address, she wants me to go play with them after I finish eating.”

“Then I’ll take you there later.”

“Okay.”

…

After dinner, Sheng Yu drove Qiao Shuyi to the address Sheng Tang had sent her.

It was Ning’an International, a top-tier entertainment club in Jingcheng.

It was also one of Ji Family’s businesses.

Qiao Shuyi unbuckled her seatbelt, preparing to get out of the car: “Brother Sheng Yu, I’ll get out here, thank you for today.”

Then she prepared to open the door.

But after trying twice, she realized the door was locked, so she looked at Sheng Yu with a pleading look: “Brother Sheng Yu, the door seems to be locked.”

“Qiao Qiao.”

The man stared at Qiao Shuyi’s face for a few seconds, then suddenly leaned forward, approaching her, and extended his hand.

“Wh-what’s wrong?”

Qiao Shuyi swallowed, looking at him nervously, not daring to move.

When the man’s warm palm touched her cheek, her spine instantly tightened: “Sheng…”

The man’s fingertips brushed against her lips, gently rubbing them.

“Your lipstick is smudged.”

He quickly withdrew his hand and opened the door: “Go.”

“…Th-thank you.”

Qiao Shuyi breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly thanked him, grabbed her bag and got out of the car, running into the building without looking back.

Watching her flee, Sheng Yu leaned back in his seat, a clear smile flashing in his eyes.

She’s too timid.

Like a little rabbit.

He raised his hand, looking at the red mark left on his fingertips, the man’s black eyes became even deeper.

Just now, he really wanted to kiss her.

But seeing her full of nervousness and helplessness, he gave up the idea.

He still had to take things slowly, otherwise he would scare her away…

“Qiao Qiao, you’re here!”

When Qiao Shuyi arrived at the private room, Sheng Tang was chatting with the people next to her. Seeing her come in, she immediately greeted her.

Qiao Shuyi walked over and sat down in the empty seat next to her.

“Qiao Qiao, why is your face so red?” Sheng Tang suddenly turned to look at her, her eyes filled with inquiry.

“Is it?”

Qiao Shuyi touched her face, feeling a little guilty: “Maybe it’s because I ran all the way in?”

“Why are you running? Did someone chase you?”

There was…

Qiao Shuyi chuckled dryly: “I was afraid you guys would be waiting for me.”

Sheng Tang looked at her suspiciously: “I don’t believe you. I feel like you’re hiding something from me. Also, who were you having dinner with tonight? Do you have friends I don’t know?”

“…”

Women’s intuition is really terrifying!

Seeing her remain silent for a long time, Sheng Tang narrowed her eyes dangerously: “You’re definitely hiding something from me, tell me! Did you go on a date with some wild man?”

“Um… well…”

Qiao Shuyi stammered for a long time, but couldn’t utter a complete sentence.

Sheng Tang really knew her too well, it was really hard to hide anything from her.

Just as Qiao Shuyi was trying to make up an excuse, the private room door was pushed open again, and a carefree voice sounded from the doorway: “Yo, so many beautiful sisters!”

Hearing this voice, everyone subconsciously looked up, only to see a man with dyed blonde hair, wearing a white T-shirt and casual pants, standing at the doorway.

He had a face that could be considered handsome, with delicate eyebrows and eyes that were somewhat delicate, his fox-like eyes slightly narrowed, alluring.

Qiao Shuyi recognized him at a glance.

Ji Xingchuan…

The young master of the Ji Family, and the young owner of this entertainment club.

At the same time, he was also a good friend of Sheng Yu.

Sheng Yu?

A bold guess arose in Qiao Shuyi’s mind.

By the time she looked up again, Ji Xingchuan had already entered the private room, followed by a familiar figure.

The moment she saw his face, Qiao Shuyi’s mind was filled with only one thought –

The wild man is here.
